His report describing the work he had done on the tomb of Queen Hetepheres, who was the wife of Senefru, first sovereign of the fourth dynasty, said that identifica- tion of the tomb was based on two Reisner | inseriptions in°gold hieroglyphics on the back of a carrying chair. ’ The report, made public at Cairo last November, said that evidence had been found that Queen Hetepheres died some time after Cheops came to the throne and was buried at Dashur, on the west bank of the Nile and directly south of the great pyramids. The tomb was rifled by thieves, and when the violation was discovered the body was transferred to a new tomb at the entrance of the pyramid of Giza. ‘This new tomb is in a vertical shaft cut 100 feet through the limestone with the chamber opening from the bottom. &Y U R A It workers in tobacco flelds smoke or chew they may infect the crop with the tobacco mosaic disease, unless they use heat-sterilized tobacco.
